Solution

The correct option is A 3125 J
Given, M=20 kg
ω=100 rad/s
R=0.25 m
Moment of inertia of the solid cylinder about its axis of symmetry
I=12MR2=12×20×(0.25)2
=10×0.0625=0.625 kg m2
Kinetic energy associated with the rotation of the cylinder is given by
KE=12Iω2
=12×0.625×(100)2
=0.3125×10000
=3125 J
